Contest reminder for : JOYS and TEARS of being AN EXPECTANT PARENT (mother-father) - Olive Eloisa Guillermo - Fraser's Blog

About Olive Eloisa Guillermo - Fraser
(Show Details...)
Bloggers Photo


I wrote since my elementary days, but I stopped..Just lately, maybe brought about by challenging situations and so much free time, I started to write, again....Most of my compositions talk about my day to day thoughts, my reflections, my experiences with the world and with God, events and whatever  crosses my mind....It is a transparent "me" and I hope to whoever will read , they will be inspired one way or another..

Most of my compositions are triggered by contests sponsored by the Premium Soup Members,  probably joining time to time from these, it developed and enhanced my writing in a way. Anyhow, I always managed to put myself within these poems. I can say that writing poems is now one of my fave hobbies.

I am a learner of poetry. This is definitely shown in my poems, different types and different subjects... I am a Filipina, born August 13, 1986.  English is not my native tongue. I render care with all kinds of people regardless of creed, age, religion and race.

Instead of speaking up, I intend to burst it all to poetry and by just singing........................... :) some will criticize as it is full of emotions or its "emo" but it is alright.. :) all I want to do is to express the things, I can't seem to say.

my compositions are my "hide outs", my fantasies,, my dreams and so long yearnings. I don't collect material things as like shoes, books, cds, paintings or so. however, these are my collections: MY POEMS. :)!

Hallo dear Soupers,

Hope all is well with you... I had my 2nd scan last Thursday, so excited to see our baby growing healthy within me.. I am so excited to whatever it is to come, the wee movements; quickening; possible kicks and much more.. No idea yet if we will have a bird or butterfly, ooooops boy or girl but all we are praying for is just s/he be healthy.. :)

I have been busy but never did I forget to check the number of entries in the contest I sponsored.. Today August 03, 2018, Friday contest entries is completed to 35... Hubby reminded me hahaha,, peace! 

James and I will be allotting a day to read and judge but before that, may I remind the participants of the rules:

*** 15-25 poetic lines; 

***poem's title must include the word BABY

***strictly NO NAMES

***DATE your poem...

we will strictly follow this rules. one rule not followed will disqualify you immediately.

We are looking forward to be mesmerized; be one with you in those times you are in our position; cry or probably smile with your lines... Once we are done, I'll post the winners immediately.. :D

happy healthy August everyone! :D// james_and_eloisa
